Drain plug and filter???
« on: May 07, 2013, 05:39:07 »
Hi guys,
A bit confused, the Pagoda fuel tanks have the drain plug with a filter on it!

How does that work?

You strain the fuel before it comes out and leave all the rubbish in the tank?

You would think the strainer would be in the filler neck!

Hello Soul,

These tanks are quite complex. Look through the "Fuel Tank Tour" on this website before you begin.
